Hi, I’m Mehmet Yavuz Şen. I graduated from the Graphic Design Department at Hacettepe University in 2024, where I developed a strong passion for CGI and VFX through both academic studies and personal projects. During my studies, I interned at Anima Istanbul, contributing to various CGI/VFX productions, including 3D modeling, animation, lighting, basic rigging, as well as lighting and chromakey work for green screen scenes. I am a driven, eager-to-learn individual who thrives in collaborative, team-oriented environments. Following my graduation, I worked as a freelance 3D Generalist on a wide range of CGI and VFX projects in Istanbul and Ankara, continuously improving my skills in modeling, rigging, lighting, shading, and compositing to create realistic visuals and cohesive multi-layered scenes. More recently, based in Dubai, I have been actively involved in CGI projects, while also working as a videographer and in digital marketing, gaining hands-on experience in content production, visual storytelling, and brand-focused digital media.
